What this sheet is for

Keep a workshop or studio let on one page from the first meter reading to the last, so the end of the let is a comparison rather than an argument.

Who it is for

Owners of workshop blocks, studio complexes, farm buildings and light-industrial units let to makers, tradespeople and small businesses.

How to use it

  1. Fill in the tenant, the unit, the dates and the use that was agreed, from the signed agreement.
  2. Read every meter with the tenant on day one and write the readings and the date in the start columns.
  3. Note the fixtures already in the unit and their condition, and any alterations the tenant has agreed with you.
  4. Log each visit or inspection while they are in, with what was seen and what was agreed.
  5. Read the meters again at the end, in the same rows, and both sign.

What is on the sheet

2 pages, in this order:

Page 1

Printed under the title: A workshop, studio or light-industrial unit let to a maker or a small business — the use agreed, the services and meters, what they may fix to the walls, what was handed over, and a log of visits and inspections while they are in.

The use, the services, the readings. A workshop let is a storage let with a trade attached: someone works in it, plugs machines in and puts shelves on the walls. Whether a use or an alteration is allowed, and what it costs, is in your agreement and the rules where you trade.

Questions

Why is there no rent or service charge printed on the sheet?

Because both are yours to set and are in the agreement, not on a record sheet. The fee box takes whatever you agreed; how power and water are charged is between you and the tenant.

Does the sheet say what a tenant is allowed to do to the unit?

No. It records what was agreed and what was found. Which uses and alterations are permitted, and what has to be made good at the end, is a matter for your agreement and the rules where you trade.
